  • Village

    Village is a medieval countryside life simulator. Only it cuts away the boring 99% of it and lets you make the decisions that shape your fameeply’s lives. Should the new kid learn a craft? Go into politics? Maybe go and see the world. Everything is possible, and everything might earn you a spot in the village chronice – or in an unmarked grave.

  • Rampage

    Panic in Meeple City. Giant monsters are converging on the city, and it doesn’t look like anyone is going to stop them. Within minutes they start throwing cars, tearing down buildings and … MUNCHING MEEPLES!
    Will there be a happy ending for anyone?

  • Mundus Novus

    Mundus Novus is, despite its trade with the new world theme, a light set collection game with a complex(ish) trading mechanic and a bit of card based progress.

  • Love Letter

    Very few board and card games come out of Japan. It’s not because they don’t exist there, they just don’t make it to Europe or the US. Alderac Entertainment is working on changing that with their Big in Japan series, games by Japanese designers, first published in Japan and for the first time translated to English. That’s why we get to play Love Letter.

  • Maximum Throwdown

    Are you one of those people that throw down their cards in anger when they lose a game? Well, in this one you throw down your cards OR you lose the game.

  • Tichu

    Tichu may be the game that profited most from going on the intertubes so far: while it has been around since 1991, it was appearing on Brettspielwelt that made the name known to every gamer to ever be online. And deservedly so. While Tichu may look similar to any other card game you know, it’s quite a unique mix of trick-taking and shedding game, but gains most its fascination from being a team game.

  • Patchwork

    Uwe Rosenberg is well known for his deep, complex games like Agricola, Glass Road or Fields of Arle. But those are not all he does, he’s equally skilled at small and deceptively simple looking games. In this one, you don’t have to feed your starving farmers, you don’t work and pray in a monastery, you don’t even sell your vegetables at the gates of Loyang. All you have to do is simply make a patchwork blanket.

  • Flash Point: Fire Rescue

    When the call comes in, everything has to happen quickly. Slide down the pole, get on the truck and of you go. Yes, you can now experience the thrill of firefighting in a board game – minus the pole – in Indie Boards and Cards new cooperative game.
